What is Melatonin Used for?


Melatonin (Melatonin) is a prescription medicine for treating short-term sleep problems and jetlag in people aged 55 and over. It is also used to help adults and children with longer-term sleep problems. Jetlag can be recognized by sleep disturbances, daytime tiredness, fatigue, mild mental impairment, irritability, and digestive system disturbances experienced after flying. The active substance in this medication is Melatonin. Melatonin belongs to the class of medication called Neurology & Psychiatry, Herbals. Melatonin is a hormone produced by the body that synchronizes the body's biological day-and-night rhythm. Melatonin is a synthetic form of naturally occurring hormone in the body which promotes sleep. It works by restoring the normal day-and-night rhythm and reducing the symptoms.

Are there any Precautions and Drug Interactions for Melatonin?


Before taking Melatonin medication, you should tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to Melatonin or have other problems when taking Melatonin. The usual dose is one tablet once daily, taken with a cup of water 1 to 2 hours before bedtime. It's best to take melatonin tablets with food. Sometimes, your doctor will recommend taking melatonin tablets 2 or 3 times a week to see if that improves your sleep first. Melatonin should only be taken for a maximum of 13 weeks to treat short-term sleep problems in adults. Still, your doctor may recommend it for a longer time, depending on the severity and nature of your condition. Avoid alcoholic beverages when taking Melatonin tablets. Do not drive or perform strenuous activities that require full concentration after taking this medication. Do not stop taking your medication without contacting your doctor.

You should not take Melatonin and inform your doctor about your medical history, especially if you have or have had:
• An allergic reaction to Melatonin or any other medicine;
• Clotting disorders such as hemophilia A;
• Depression or psychiatric illness;
• Diabetes Mellitus;
• History of epilepsy or seizure disorder;
• Kidney disease;
• Liver disease (including hepatitis B infection)

Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding a baby. Melatonin medication should not be used during pregnancy because of its harmful effect on the growing baby. During pregnancy, discuss with your doctor the risks and benefits of using Melatonin before using it. Although breast milk contains some melatonin, discuss with your doctor if you are a nursing mother before using a Melatonin tablet. If you notice that your baby seems unusually sleepy and is not feeding as well as usual, or if you have any other concerns about your baby, contact your doctor immediately.

Tell your doctor about all the medications you use, including prescriptions, over-the-counter medications, herbal products, and vitamin supplements, to prevent drug interactions that might be fatal to your health. This interaction may make your drug less effective, cause adverse effects, or potentiate other drugs' actions. There may be a drug interaction between Melatonin and other drugs, such as:
• Amitriptyline;
• Carbamazepine;
• Morphine;
Warfarin;
• Zopiclone
